ESH: Otto W - 46 years (A different Otto from yesterday)

Yesterday we had a guy named Otto speaking and today we have a guy named Otto speaking, I listened to this while looking for the first guy and liked his speak...so its 2 Ottos in 2 days.

Otto W is from Richland Washington, he got sober in 1959 and is telling his very colorful story at the Inland Empire Roundup held in 2005.

The Little Red Book

In 1942, Ed W. began teaching the “Twelve Step Study” classes that helped the Minneapolis Group achieve their 75% recovery rate. Then in 1946, he and Barry C. (The first sober A.A. in the state) published the lectures used for these classes as a book. Initially titled The Twelve Steps, it was affectionately nicknamed “The little red book.”

Back in print for the first time in more than 65 years, the original 1946 edition reveals firsthand how some of A.A.’s earliest members made the program their way of life. Everyone from newcomers to oldtimers will find a wealth of practical experience in this comprehensive guide to the Twelve Steps.
